1977 Alfa Romeo Spider In Excellent Condition - True Survivor Like Mbg & Triumph on 2040-cars
Year:1977
Mileage:53500
Location:
Dallas, Pennsylvania, United States

Here is an excellent, rust free true survivor car. You hear the term 'survivor' all the time but the term is usually used incorrectly. This unmolested car starts right up and runs terrific with an amazing exhaust note especially when you start winding her out - she screams. Has had very little annual mileage since 1976 or 1977. The car was manufactured in Aug. 1976 but is titled as a 1977 model year. It loves the curves and also the highway. Unlike my previous TR6, with this 5-speed car you are never running at high rpm on the highway and passing power is always on tap. The included Alfa Romero factory hard top is in excellent condition with only a small light scratch in the vinyl. The glass on the hard top and on the car is all excellent. The soft top is like brand new with excellent rear window. The original Alfa Romeo aluminum wheels are included as is the chrome Alfa luggage rack, jack, air conditioning unit and compressor (disconnected), the owners manual and a pile of receipts totaling quite a bit several hundred or over a thousand dollars. The alternator is quite new. The leather interior is quite good - there is a small hole in the passenger seat. The dual true side draft Weber cabs work great. The rotor, cap, wires and plugs are new. The car came up from Tennessee where it was originally purchased and spent the last 10 - 15 years here in Dallas, PA where it was only driven in the dry summer weather. The body has a few minor dents, dings and light scratches. The is a spot on the hood that look like a small split in the paint, perhaps from engine heat. There is a small crack in the dash. There is a small dent in the rear fender lip that was needs to be filled and smoothed, but is it NOT a rust hole, it is a minor dent. The floors are perfect as is the under side of the car. There is one or two small holes in the spare tire well which will be easy to repair. There is only a small paint bubble in the paint behind the right front wheel but is certainly not indicative of any major rocker rust as they are extremely solid and there is no where on the car where a magnet wont stick. I've agonized over selling this car since it is fully road worthy and antique plate/insurance eligible, but it will be much easier to sell then my 2 other project cars. I will work with your shipper if that is required. You can see more pictures at the following link and more will be added soon tp include the hard to, factory aluminum wheels and spare tire, paper work, jack, a/c compressor and other items that will be included: http://s466.photobucket.com/user/oita-dow/media/ALFA%20SPIDER/alfa014.jpg.html In the spirit of full and honest disclosure, since this 38 year old car is being sold as is, here are some items which can use some attention: 1. The speedometer has stop working, but the mileage on the speedometer is 53,251 and the title reads 53,219. I bought the car last summer and have not driven it much at all as I am working on at 1974 TR6 and a 1946 Willys CJ2 project, but I put no more 400 - 500 miles on it. I was told the fix is not extremely difficult but haven't gotten to it. 2. The gas tank drips if it is more than apx. 1/3 full. I do not know if this is a hose or not. I simply do not fill it more than 1/3 full which is plenty of cruising time. 3. The oil pressure gauge isn't working, probably just the sending unit. (Temperature, fuel gauge and low fuel warning light work fine. Heat and defrost/fan work fine.) 4. The turn signal flasher isn't working so I must work the signal lever manually to signal a turn. This is probably just a matter of replacing the low-cost flasher but I'm not sure which part it is. 5. The passenger side wiper are is included but needs a new rubber. (cheap) 6. The car appears to have had an original color respray at some point in it's life and it is not extremely shiny, but it still looks great. PAYMENT: A NON-REFUNDABLE $200 DEPOSIT VIA PAYPAL IS DUE WITHIN 24 HOURS OF WINNING THE AUCTION. THIS $200 DEPOSIT IS NON-REFUNDABLE. PAYMENT OF THE BALANCE MUST BE MADE WITHIN ONE WEEK (7 DAYS) BY CERTIFIED CHECK OR CASH IF PICKING UP IN PERSON.

AFTER THE INITIAL 2 WEEK (14 DAY) PERIOD, THE $25 PER WEEK (OR ANY PART THEREOF) STORAGE FEE MUST BE PAYED VIA PAYPAL PRIOR TO EACH WEEK (OR ANY PART THEREOF) OF STORAGE OR THE SALE WILL BE VOID AND YOUR DEPOSIT FORFEITED. IF YOU DO NOT PICK UP THE CAR WITHIN 6 WEEKS (YOUR BALANCE, LESS A 10% BREECH OF CONTRACT PENALTY, STORAGE FEES AND THE $200 DEPOSIT) WILL BE REFUNDED AND THE CAR WILL BE RE LISTED. |

Alfa Romeo 8C and GTV: Classic names revived as high-powered hybrids
Fri, Jun 1 2018BOLOCCO, Italy — There were grand plans for Alfa Romeo at FCA's last five-year plan. By 2018, we were supposed to get eight new products, including a new "specialty" vehicle. In reality, we've gotten the Giulia and Stelvio. At this year's follow-up, Alfa Romeo brand head Tim Kuniskis called the last plan ambitious, but he offered a new vision that was both more realistic and more far-reaching. Beyond doubling down on utility and electrified vehicles, by 2022 Alfa has plans to revive both the 8C and GTV names as high-performance hybrids. Since 2014, Alfa sales are up 160 percent, with an estimated 170,000 vehicles to be sold in 2018. The North American market counts for 16 percent of that, up from nothing back in 2013. Future products will focus on Alfa's current strengths: styling and performance. Look for new compact and full-size utility vehicles to slot on each side of the Stelvio. Plans for a larger sedan seemed to have been nixed, though a long-wheelbase version of the Giulia will make it to the ever-increasing Chinese market. The most exciting news obviously comes from the return of the 8C supercar and GTV sports car. We have few details, but what we do know looks promising. The 8C will use a carbon-fiber chassis with a mid-mounted twin-turbo V6. More than 700 horsepower will be sent to all four wheels thanks to an electrically-driven front axle. The car should hit 62 mph in fewer than 3 seconds. The GTV will be slightly more tame, though Alfa is promising more than 600 horsepower from its hybrid powertrain. The four-seater will also have all-wheel drive, torque vectoring and a 50/50 weight distribution. The brief teaser image shows a car that looks like a two-door Giulia, though it's unclear if we'll actually get a new coupe. Electrification, autonomy and connectivity are coming, too. Obviously, the 8C and GTV will get electrified powertrains, but look for each Alfa Romeo model to have some sort of electrification available. Look for six plug-in hybrids with all-electric ranges of more than 30 miles. Level 2 and 3 autonomous systems are coming, too.

Sergio rethinks FCA-GM merger idea, dismisses critics
Sat, Dec 5 2015After many public overtures, Fiat Chrysler Automotive CEO Sergio Marchionne has claimed his company won't be making a hostile takeover bid for General Motors. This is despite widespread speculation that FCA's desire to merge was motivated by its allegedly dire situation. As one unnamed GM exec who spoke to Automotive News earlier this year put it, "Why should [GM] bail out FCA?" "We are not choking. We are in relatively decent shape," Marchionne told journalists attending an FCA shareholder meeting in Amsterdam, AN reports. "We have been publicly rebuffed, we have been rejected and you cannot force these things. I don't want to. At the moment, we have no intention to do anything hostile." Instead of focusing on merging with GM, or any other partners for that matter, FCA will refocus on implementing its ambitious five-year investment plan, which would see it dump $52 billion into its various brands, with a particular focus on Alfa Romeo, Maserati, and Jeep. So far the attempt has largely been unsuccessful, especially as it relates to the Italian brands. Earlier this week, additional reports emerged that claimed Alfa was pushing back the Giulia and an unnamed CUV while reassigning resources to updated versions of the Giulietta and MiTo hatchbacks. This is not the first time we've heard about trouble for the Giulia, of course. For Masearti, though, it was the first we'd heard of delays for Alfieri sports car, which allegedly won't appear in 2016, as promised. We can expect a proper breakdown of FCA's adjusted plans when Marchionne and Company reveal an updated product slate next month.

The 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C should sound even better
Sat, Jan 16 2016We love the raw simplicity of the Alfa Romeo 4C – it is first and foremost a driver's car, and a great one at that. So while there are a number of updates for the 2016 model year, none of them mess with the 4C's inherent enthusiast-centric nature. In fact, these enhancements should only, well, enhance the overall driving experience. The thing we're most excited about is a new Akrapovic dual-mode titanium exhaust. Not only does this option relocate the exhaust tips to the center of the 4C's rump, it uses asymmetrical mufflers and a link pipe with a built-in resonator to create what we assume is an even better exhaust sound. The Akrapovic setup works with the Alfa's DNA drive select modes – in Dynamic and Race, things are loud and resonant, but in Natural and All-Weather settings, there's a quieter tone. Other 4C updates are less obvious. There's some more carbon fiber trim both inside and out, some new color combinations for the leather sport seats, and the Spider's premium audio system and lockable storage containers are now standard on the Coupe. Pricing isn't confirmed in Alfa's release, but from what we find on the company's consumer site, the Coupe starts at $55,900 and the Spider comes in at $65,900. Based on the 2015 models we tested, that means the added content has bumped up the Coupe's price by $2,000, and the Spider sees a modest $405 hike. Read all the details in the press blast below. ALFA ROMEO 4C AND 4C SPIDER ADD MORE PERSONALIZATION OPTIONS FOR 2016 New for 2016, Alfa Romeo is offering even more carbon fiber: - All-new carbon fiber halo offering elevates the 4C Spider's technical look, while hinting at its exclusive carbon-fiber monocoque chassis - All-new Carbon Fiber Trim Package further proliferates 4C and 4C Spider's use of carbon fiber on interior vents, instrument cluster surround and instrument panel and shift bezels - Bespoke Italian style: A new premium leather interior with Tobacco and Black sport seats paired with a Black leather interior with Tobacco accent stitching is now available - All-new Akrapovi?
